I have had two miscarriages, one at 14 weeks and another at 12 weeks. My doctor advised me to do some tests, including APLAS, ELISA, EIA, IgM, and IgG. I have received my reports, but I am not sure how to read them. Please help me understand whether my reports are negative or positive.

Recurrent miscarriage workup often includes APLA, ELISA, EIA for autoimmune or infection related causes. If your report says negative for IgG/IgM antibodies (APA, ANA, etc.), that suggests these are not the cause. If any result says positive or borderline, it needs evaluation by a gynecologist or rheumatologist.

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a Anti Cardiolipin AB IgG And IgM Test or Take a ANTI NUCLEAR ANTIBODY (ANA) Test

Hi, I completed treatment for typhoid, and my Typhi dot and Widal tests have been negative for more than a month. For the past 15 to 20 days, my blood pressure has dropped to 80/50, and I have started experiencing palpitations and numbness in my head after stopping antibiotics. For the last 20 days, I have had similar symptoms as during the initial phase of typhoid but without high fever. I consulted a cardiologist and an endocrinologist. All thyroid, cortisol tests, and echocardiography are normal. Holter report shows brady and tachycardia. The cardiologist suggested that hypotension might be due to some infection and advised repeating blood tests and Typhi dot. Recent blood tests show lymphocytosis, decreased platelets (120), increased RDW SD, and raised liver bilirubin. Typhi dot and Widal are negative. Dengue, malaria, hepatitis, and TB Gold are negative. Stool and urine tests show WBCs but no growth in culture. I frequently feel dizziness, numbness in the head, along with ear, eye, right side abdominal pain, and occasional mild fever (99.2 to 99.8 degrees F). Kindly advise and help?

I have pain in my body from neck to hip joints and shoulders after sitting a few minutes, and sometimes I also get headaches. I underwent treatment and my blood report shows abnormal results: total WBC count is 12,700 cells per cumm, ESR is 52 mm per h, and RA factor is 4.8 IU per ml. My doctor prescribed medicine without explaining the report. Can anyone please explain my report? Is there anything serious in my blood report? Are these symptoms of cancer? Please answer and suggest what is better for me.
